why the hell do i need to run a usdm harness/ecu when doing a jdm turbo2 swap?

nismo convert 01-28-2006 09:59 PM

Because the steering columns are on opposite sides, meaning the harness from the ecu connects to the other side. And the fuse block is on the drives side.

thats what i thought like everyone i talk to is like it will never work!.. god people are lazy what about the ecu? its the same right?

nismo convert 01-28-2006 10:28 PM

f-con what?



if it's the old school "black box" version.

then yes, you NEED a factory ECU.



that one was made to be a piggyback controller. as every f-con since then has been (except for the ProV)

What sensor do you guys need? I've got an extra T2 sensor I originally used w/ my conversion...
